Jimmy Williams / guitar John Coleman / vocals & keyboards Wendi Philllips / bass and Mike Williams / drums
“One of the most refreshing voices on guitar today is Jimmy Williams of Motorpsychic. He has the talent and technique to ignite forest fires, and he brings a fresh spark of electricity to this session. His improvisations at times reflect the developmental construction of a piano player as he scurries forward with improvisatory logic. He sustains a fiercely burning flame with his aggressive runs, yet he conveys the sense of being totally in control at all times."
Hard driving riffs, progressive blues, classic rock grooves and free-jazz improvisations characterize the music of Motorpsychic. Consisting of four musicians: guitar virtuoso Jimmy Williams, mondo bassist Wendi Phillips, uber-vocalist and keyboardist John Coleman, and drummer extraordinaire Mike Williams, Motorpsychic is a powerful, musical tour de force that defies categorization. At concerts, festivals, bike rallies, colleges or club dates their “in-your-face” live shows highlight the energetic showmanship, high caliber musicianship and telepathic musical interplay that is Motorpsychic.
